But first you may want to know a thing or two about the way your W2s are going to affect your tax return. Here are a few of the basic things to keep in mind.
Multiple Employers
When your social security withholdings breach the standard amount, an online service will usually recalculate your situation and give you the excess amount as a credit against your income tax.
Multiple W2s From the Same Employer
If you have two W2s from the same employer that add up to exceed the social security limit, then you cannot take that excess amount as a credit. You should ask your employer to correct your W2′s and you should also ask for a return of your overpayment.
